they did also make them for bicycles. the one I found didn't have as many hole's in it for mounting it on. i'll try to find the link. but they made them for almost everything. still good find though!:icon_thumright:

Never have seen one on a bicycle before. The curvature on these is not as pronounced as it would need to be in order to fit on a head tube. The 3 hole version of this is also a radiator cap emblem for a Monogram Jr. locking radiator cap.
